The Mirage of Legibility In 1965, Robert McNamara sold victory in Vietnam with numbers: body counts, sorties, bombs. War, he thought, could be won like a business case. I look at the lessons from his failure in my latest for @unherd. (1/6)

I’m rereading Gene Wolfe’s Fifth Head of Cerberus (fourth time?) and can confidently say this is my favorite work of science fiction in any form. What an achievement, both the titular novella and other two (that added even more dimension and richness to the overall novel without subtracting anything). He is an artist on the level of Johann Sebastian Bach.

@MScarince Nah. It's mostly a comedy. Read it for fun once, then read it again with a pencil. Percy's laying down an argument for how partisan politics have filled the void left by the failure of the church to work on its mission (broadly speaking). We muddle through.

@kukukadoo There is such a thing a flourishing and it demands little materially. You can always adjust course between excess and privation. Life is full of little navigational adjustments and long enough to eventually hit the right tack.
@ReReadingWolfe Every young man should try to be like Silk in this book.

Born on this day in 1940, Bruce Lee was one of the most underappreciated philosophers of the past century, who used the gate of Hollywood to Trojan-horse eternal Eastern teachings into Western popular culture. Here are his private writings on willpower, imagination, reason vs. emotion, and the root of confidence: themarginalian.org/2016/08/01/bru…
